Okay, I am thinking I want to meet with HOME ARCHITECTS ^®

How do I do this?

We have been asked, many times, if we will consider being custom home architects for projects in locations other than where we happen to live, which is in Cashiers, North Carolina, USA. Our answer is: YES! We will be delighted to produce designs for projects in just about any place in the whole world.

OUR LOCAL GEOGRAPHY (however, we design projects ALL over the USA and the World):

At the south end of the Appalachian chain of mountains are the Blue Ridge Mountains. Several small mountain villages are located in that area.  We are a residential architect there: we are one of a handful of Cashiers NC architects. Down US Highway 64 east, is Lake Toxaway. Not quite to far to the east, coming toward Cashiers, is Sapphire. In the other direction (west on 64) is Highlands NC.

Going back in the other direction on 64 (farther east) , is Brevard. Down in South Carolina, lies Seneca SC, and a way to the west down there, is Greenville. A little closer to Asheville, along 64, is Mills River. There is a small town between Lake Toxaway and Asheville : Etowah.

There is more, much more in the Western North Carolina mountains and in the Piedmont: In the larger city a bit more east (a big city to us village-dwellers), is Asheville. A ways to the far east is the even larger metropolitan area: Charlotte NC. We may design anything there, as we are also commercial architects and our senior staff architect, Rand Soellner AIA/NCARB, was co-project manager, co-designer and detailer on a significant mid-rise condominium housing project in metro Charlotte, North Carolina.

And there are still more WNC places: To the north of Cashiers lies Cullowhee. To the NW is Franklin. East of this is Sylva, North Carolina. To the northeast of Cashiers is Waynesville. To the northeast of that is Canton. Just south of Asheville is Fairview, NC. Beyond Asheville lies Mount Mitchell.

We are available to provide residential design services in the following places: Moscow, Paris, the Cliffs, Cashiers NC, Highlands. We also work as: Old Edwards Club Architects, Highlands Cove Architects and Luxury Residential Architects.

In addition, we provide comprehensive services in these roles: Log Home Designers, Luxury Home Design, Energy Star Architects, Healthy Home Architecture.

ADDITIONAL AREAS WHERE WE PROVIDE CUSTOM HOUSE DESIGN SERVICES:

We also will design houses that happen to be located in: Seneca SC, Franklin, Sylva NC, and the Biltmore area. We also will assist you if you are in Florida, Virginia, Hollywood, Montana, Orlando.

We are designing an estate residence in West Virginia now, in the Daniels/Glade Springs area and also design for these other places Miami, Palm Beach, and Ocala FL . Colorado is one of our targeted market areas, as people from there have told us our house designs fit in well in that mountainous region. So, we are pleased to offer our skills in these areas: Aspen CO, Telluride, Colorado City.

Also, Atlanta, Georgia is nearby our base of operations, as is Macon, Newnan, and further south, Savannah.

And finally, we will design custom houses for you in these places: Buckhead, Richmond VA, Montana, Big Sky, Jackson Hole, Beverly Hills, California.

WHEREVER YOUR SITE IS LOCATED, WE WILL BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE A DESIGN FOR YOU.
